caffeine does not directly equal energy in fact, some individuals report being sedated and relaxed by caffeine. the primary pharmacological effect of caffeine is to stimulate the central nervous system. in doing so, caffeine produces a host of physiological effects; it speeds up the heart rate, increases stomach acid, and works as a diuretic. caffeine also dialtes blood vessels making possibly suitable for some asthmatics. over the last twenty or so years, caffeine has become popular as a diet aid because it speeds up the rate at which the resting body oxidizes energy. unfortunately, what most manufacturers fail to mention is that tolerance occures quickly making it unsuitable for long term weight control.
